WHO: Lewiston (8-2) at Bangor (9-1)

WHEN: 7 tonight

WHERE: Cameron Stadium, Bangor

TO GET HERE: Lewiston beat Messalonskee 42-13 and Brunswick 20-6. Bangor beat Edward Little 16-0 and Mt. Blue 22-12

FOR LEWISTON: The Blue Devils run a wing-T offense and spread the running chores among four backs — halfbacks Jeff Keene, Matt Therrien and Jeff Turcotte, and fullback Joe McKinnon. Last week against Brunswick, two backs carried the ball 11 times, one had 10 carries and one had eight. Quarterback Chris Madden has gotten better on play-action passes. Tight end Cody Dussault is the second-leading receiver in Eastern Class A.

FOR BANGOR: The Rams run primarily out of the I-formation, with a little spread offense at times. Bangor is a big team with a big line and a 6-foot-6 quarterback in Joe Seccareccia, and a 6-5, 220-pound tailback in Josiah Hartley, who carried 35 times for 204 yards against Brunswick. Seccareccia is a strong runner and passer. His favorite targets are receiver Nick Sherwood and tight end Nick Cota, who has caught four TDs in the last three games.
